The Shondaland era of Netflix officially begins this Christmas with Bridgerton, a new series that marries the trashy melodrama of Grey’s Anatomy with the sparky Britishness of Downton Abbey. An adaptation of Julia Quinn’s historical romance novels, the series was executive produced by Shonda Rhimes and created by Scandal alum Chris Van Dusen. Today, Netflix dropped the show’s first teaser.
